i want to buy some purse feet and magnetic snap closures on ebay but don't need 120 or 600 of them. i'm wondering if any locals want to split an order. i think these are much cheaper on ebay than at JoAnns or Michaels. i think the mag snaps cost about $1.50 each at the store and only about 50 cents on ebay, or less if you buy a bigger quantity. i can get the details if people are interested. i don't want to have to deal w/ shipping them, hence the call for local craftin gals (or guys.) thanks!

I made these bags for my 6 yr old daughter Isabella and her friend Lauren. Each a little different, but both lined in yellow cotton with an attached "lippy holder" for lipbalm or coins and with different handles. I was pleased w/ how they came out. I just got a new sewing & embroidery machine and have been making stuff and personalizing stuff like crazy! my daughter has already filled hers (see the orange boa pen sticking out) and Lauren will get hers on her b-day.http://www.rocketlettuce.net/ebaypix/bags.jpg

I made this a bit ago for a company wide art show. I thought I'd show it off here because I really enjoy it (as do many of my patients - -I work in mental health)! It created quite a controvery at the art show. Let me know what you think....

i just finished this capelet for my daughter. have yet to weave in the ends....nothing fancy just knitting and purling using large needles and cheap yarn, then joining in the round. Now i'm going to make some adult sized ones for gifts in fancier yarns. woo hoo! let me know what you think. http://www.rocketlettuce.net/ebaypix/capelet.jpg

does anyone have a pattern for a knitted ipod cozy that has openings for the display and the clickwheel? i thought i saw a finished one here a week or so ago but can't find it anywhere. I want to make a cozy that lets you use the ipod while in the cozy. making a felted one would be tres cool too! thanks

i made this a while ago and love it, and just discovered this site so thought i'd do a first post. this is made from a felted thrift store JCrew sweater, lined with a thrift store green silk blouse (hard to see in the pics), and then I needle felted the design on the top. I've gotten lots of compliments at stores when people have seen it. it's really a prototype as there are certainly things I'd do differently next time. After this project, I had plans and sweaters/yarn for a million more but haven't had the time. this site is so inspiring!
